The acoustics of a conference room needs careful consideration. The room needs to offer a quiet confidential space where speech can be clearly heard throughout the room, whilst also being professional in appearance and aesthetically pleasing to impress visitors. Often audio equipment is blamed when voices are not clearly audible however the lack of clarity can often be due to sound reverberation. This is often the case in modern conference rooms where a clean uncluttered look is desired, so the sound bounces and reverberates around the hard flat surfaces degrading the clarity of speech, recording and communications. Sound reverberation can be reduced by introducing the appropriate sound absorbing surfaces.
When Moonpig wanted to increase the clarity of communication and also improve the appearance of their conference rooms they selected Quietstone acoustic ceiling panels. The system was installed in all 8 conference rooms at their head quarters in London. The specification was white acoustic ceiling panels that had to be sound absorption class A (the highest class of sound absorption).
To meet this specification we installed Quietstone Light in a white colour at the given thickness of 50mm, we also allowed for a 50mm air gap behind the panels to improve the acoustics.
